When you have a burial using a casket and a concrete (I think it's coccrete) vault does that casket and vault slow down decomposition? If not what is the purpose, if any, of the casket and vault? Thanks

I heard of someone named Angel Medina who received a "special embalming treatment" so that he could be standing up when his corpse was displayed. Where could I find more specific details on his treatment? It's for a screenplay I'm working on.

Asked by Vern about 10 years ago

I know of a situation where a grave may be relocated after having been buried for three months. This also involves people who were not at the funeral. In a situation like that, would the body still be able to be viewed before reburial?
